In the aftermath of the Borg attack on the Enterprise the crew finds themselves hot on the tails of the Cardassian's who have not only created a nano-virus to kill or possibly wipe out the Borg, they've created a weapon that may be metagenic in nature. Can the crew of the Enterprise stop the Cardassian's before innocent lives are lost? Second story in the 'Rogue Officer' series.

Instead of Riker pursuing a command path aboard various starships, he works as a doctor at Starfleet Medical. He meets Troi when she is admitted for a broken arm. Riker always follows one rule: Never fall for a patient, even if it’s a beautiful woman. But he can’t help but feel a strange connection between the two of them. *A different sort of AU fanfic.*

Written for the October story challenge. Riker is paired up with a Cardassian General named Gul Dukon as a liaison to assist in the clean-up in the aftermath of a Borg invasion to Cardassia. Will the two be able to find common ground to defeat a common enemy?

After a Cardassian warship crosses the border from the Neutral Zone into Federation space, they board the Federation flagship and kidnap Counselor Troi, taking her hostage on a planet they claim is rightfully theirs for colonization.
